Welcome back to another week of Images & Words. This week I chose as our topic I Am Haunted By Waters. Like Milli's banner above we all seem to be drawn to water be it an ocean...lake.. or stream side for me. The solace that it brings us can't be matched by anything else. The title of this weeks topic is from a quote by Norman Maclean's book A River Runs Through It. A favorite book,movie and quote of mine because it shows us how much more the waters that run through our lives mean when you look a little deeper. Enough rambling let the Magic of your waters grace us today.
The Rules:
Each week we will post an original photo with words on it. The idea behind this group is to expand our minds through our photography.
Photos must be your own, but the words can be someone else's as long as credit is given after the words.
Your post can either be serious, or if you'd like comical, but never obscene .
Posts can either have one word on them,quotes, or full poems ... Your choice.
All posts are to be done on your own site in a blog form with a link back to it being left here.
New topics will be posted on Sundays.
Posts can be made through Saturday.
One post per person only please.

Thanks Mia ...You can always grace us with your water lilies I for one never tire of them.
ReplyDeleteThanks Belita !!! This is one from my archives that I took several years ago but never tire of it. Think it has been awhile since I last posted it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture, and I love the theme! Off to search my gazillion lake and ocean pics for one I haven't posted before, lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vic ...How about a nice sunrise over some water shot Louisiana style...
ReplyDeleteLove that image Joel and my man with Springbok colours in angling had a little chuckle at your words.
ReplyDeleteShould have kept my river from PP for IM ?? Now I have to start all over.

ReplyDeleteThanks Marianne !!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynne !!!!
ReplyDeletewell done joel
ReplyDeleteback soon
This is a good challenge. Hm... I wonder what I can do???
ReplyDeleteI love your choice of theme here Joel.
ReplyDeleteI think I have more photos of water than any other subject.
I also think you have made a fabulous capture for this theme and your quote is ideal.
I would have to agree with Mr Thoreau in total there.
My contribution is here.

B&W certainly gives that photo impact and the words fit the photo like a glove.
ReplyDeleteI have been drawn to the water so much so I now live near the beach

Gorgeous photo! Black and white really brings out the layers of stream, and I love that the fisherman is completely silhouetted. I'm off to think about this about this theme, should I use a photo from back home in the SF Bay Area? Or here in Boise? hmmm.....
ReplyDeleteOkay back with mine. And wow, coming back and seeing your photo, i'm in awe ag'n. it's perfect.

Thank you all for all the kind words and for participating this week. Incredible set of photos so far. I can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your Steelers man.
ReplyDeleteYeah... me too. Maybe I shouldn't have watched, Vic says I'm bad luck.
ReplyDeleteI'm not allowed to watch ANY LSU games...
ReplyDeleteLol thanks Lanie but we blew it 3 interceptions and a fumble doesn't win you the Super Bowl I was surprised at how close we got in the end. Great season and there is always next year.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vic... had a great tailgate party in my living room anyways.
ReplyDeletejust came back to catch up on the entries and to also stare at that photo again, Joel. Wow. It's freaking incredible. I can only hope to capture a scene so well someday.....
